LOVE ME TENDER

What this record means

The record shows that “LOVE ME TENDER” is no longer active – it was cancelled on Dec 14 2002 because the registrant, W. Atlee Burpee Company, did not file a required Section 8 declaration, so the registration on the Principal Register (Reg. No. 1962262) is dead. The only goods listed are “flower and vegetable seeds, live plants and flowers” in International Class 031, so a similar name used for gardening or horticultural products would be the closest area of concern, while uses in unrelated fields fall outside the scope shown in the record. The record does not give the owner any blanket control over every use of the words “LOVE ME TENDER.” No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply tracks the normal allowance, use‑in‑commerce filings and the eventual cancellation. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a brand in the seed or plant market, but the risk drops sharply for other product categories.
